Habitat: The Quetzals live in the canopy layer of the rainforest. They live in Central America. They also live in Costa Rica dn in Guatemala. They eat lizards, bugs and insects when young. They also eat fruits, but mainly wild avocados when older. their enemies are large animals and people. Diet: Lizards, bugs and insects when they're young, and fruits, mostly wild avacado, when they're older. Facts: The Quetzal is an endangered species. The male Quetzal is recognizable by its nearly two foot long brilliant green tail, and shiny feathers. It's tail can also be 60 cm long. History: Quetzal is the nahuatl (the language of the Aztec/Mexica among other indigenous tribes of Mexico) word for feather. Quetzals are hard to find because they nest only in the tallest and oldest trees in the rainforest that are at least 3,600 feet above sea level.
